Description

PurposeThe Pre-Operative MRI of the Breast (POMB) trial was a randomized, prospective, multicenter trial evaluating the impact of pre-operative breast MRI on treatment regimens and short-term surgical outcomes in women up to 56 years of age with breast cancer. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the performance of pre-operative breast MRI in the POMB trial with respect to incremental MRI findings - over conventional breast imaging methods – and their concordance with histopathology.
